Experience

Your journey starts here.

Set a course for life

One thing about your future is certain: you will graduate into a world and workforce unlike any that has ever existed. Will you be prepared?

Oglethorpe’s one-of-a-kind Atlanta Laboratory for Learning (A_LAB) links the knowledge you gain in the classroom with real-world experience. You’ll mesh what you learn from professors and books and lab experiments on campus with what business people, policy makers, healthcare workers, scientists, community activists, and artists are doing — every day — around Atlanta, the U.S. and the world.
